Humanities
“A map of the world which does not include Utopia is not worth even glancing at, for it leaves out the country at which Humanity is always landing. And when Humanity lands there, it looks out, and seeing a better country, sets sail….. ”
– Oscar Wilde
“..Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lots of others, or strikes against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring, those ripples build a current which can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance….”
– Robert Kennedy
Our Endeavours are related to the Betterment of the Humanities and by Humanities, we mean Humanities in its entirety, irrespective of race, age, sex, nationalities and indeed all other attributes.
It appears that Anthropolgists have generally agreed that the journey of human civilization began about 200,000 years ago when mean first walked out of the cave somewhere in East Africa today. Then, human beings started to go to different places on planet earth which has created the diversity we see today. However, if what the anthropologists said are true, we all come from the same origin.
And we have great admiration on the American Declaration of Independence on 1776 which declared that ..”We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”
Hence, our notion of Humanities naturally include the total current world population of 8bn spreading around the 195 countries in the world. But we think our current civilisation is not created out of vacuum. Instead, it is built on many things done by people in the past and the ideas that come out from their minds. We also think that history is not made by merely the major names and figures. Instead, it is actually the collective results of all the people who have lived and we would seek to give them the proper credit they deserve to the extent that we can.
Hence, by Humanities, we really mean all those who have Lived; and from all Walks of Life, East and West; Past and Present.
And we further divide them into 4 major components: individuals, companies, governments as well as non-government and non-commercial organisations. We take the view that these four entities, collectively, would decide how the journey of human civilization would be like in the years ahead.
